I was born in the Philippines but have called California home for nearly four decades. From a young age, I picked up cooking skills by observing others in the kitchen. I would jot down the ingredients and attempt to recreate those dishes at home. Once I became a family man, I was motivated to expand my culinary repertoire.
My love for cooking truly blossomed when friends began complimenting my dishes and asking me to cater their private events. My wife and three kids inspire me to cook, as they all have a great appreciation for food. They are my biggest supporters and my toughest critics.
I've created a vibrant community on my YouTube channel and Facebook page, Filipino Dad Cooks, where I share my recipes and passion for cooking!
You can now taste and order my dishes If you live in Northern California (San Francisco, Peninsula, South Bay, and some parts of the East Bay). Please visit Shef.com and find me under Southeast Asian Shefs.
Seeing my customers happy with my dishes is one great reason why I keep cooking.
Newest addition to my menu. They are amazing....you can't eat just one.
